Abstrakt: Aristolochic acids are one of the major compounds in aristolochia plants, which are nephrotoxic and carcinogenic. A method was established for the detection and identification of aristolochic acids and their DNA adducts in four different herbs using ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-ion mobility quadrupole time-of flight mass spectrometry. Solid phase extraction conditions were optimized to improve the sensitivity of the experiment by using 40 mg of C 18 as adsorbent and 100 μL ethanol as elution solvent. At a collision energy of 10-40 eV, these compounds and cleavage patterns were precisely identified and analyzed by secondary fragmentation and collision cross section values. The obtained mass spectrometry data were then analyzed by targeted metabolomics, including principal component analysis, partial least squares-discriminant analysis and hierarchical clustering analysis, and importing the samples in the established model, the confidence values can reach 0.61 and 0.76. All in all, this method can provide a useful tool for the detection of aristolochic acids and deoxyribonucleic acid adducts. In conclusion, this method was successfully used for the detection and identification of aristolochic acids and their DNA adducts.
